Genetic Sorting of Subordinate Species in Grassland Modulated by Intraspecific Variation in Dominant Species
Figure 1
Field experimental design with three species pools (A,B,C) planted with local ecotype or cultivar grasses.
The two subordinate species were sampled from their respective species pools (Chamaecrista fasciculata-A, Silphium integrifolium-B); the ‘Rumsey’ Sorghastrum nutans cultivar and local ecotype individuals were sampled across all three replicated species pools.
